Word has it (and Google confirmed) that Franks wanted to play baseball at LSU, as well. Anyone hear any talk of Sully and Mac letting this guy play both? Apparently, he's been clocked in the low to mid '90s.
I'm sure your good at something, but football isn't it. Find it and stick with it.Did you watch the same game i did? Kelvin had 100+ yards and treon had all day to throw.
That's exactly what I saw. I'm no football guru by any stretch of the imagination, but all of this "he had all day" and the "the WRs were wide open on every play" stuff isn't what I've seen lately. More like sprints to the QB or 7-8 men in coverage and a spy on the QB.I'm sure your good at something, but football isn't it. Find it and stick with it.
Treon had "all day" meaning more than 1-1.5 seconds I suppose only when they rushed 3 and dropped 8. Even then the three got pressure on him quickly.
It's just stupid. It's as stupid as "we need a tall QB" (Wuerffel? Leak? Brees? Flutie?) which followed the previous boardspeak of "we must have running QBs".
Just sit and laugh as the parrots repeat their stupidity.
Mac and every single commentator calls our OL a disaster. Mac has fired two guys in the last two weeks (Riles then Dillard). He is doing the best he can with what he was left. At the moment, it's Treon and freshmen, a guy with a frankenstein shoulder, and a IAA transfer on the OL. Yet people bytch.

You do love you some treon. I'm not saying the OL doesn't suck. Clearly they do. Despite that, if it was JD or john Brantley in the exact same position back there you'd be dogging them nonstop.
If Treon sees/hits open receivers half the time or even 3/4 of the time on Saturday, we have at least 21-28 points. The plays were there several times, and there wasn't a single, solitary time they were executed properly.Kelvin had more rushing yards than Treon had throwing. I can't remember one outstanding play from Treon in that game (and he had opportunities). I don't put all the blame on him though - personally, I think Mac/Nuss called a horrible game.

The OL appeared to do OK when they rushed 3 and dropped 8 into coverage. Of course, those were the plays where there was no one open. I'm not not saying there weren't plays to be made here and there, but so many act like we should have just been able to throw it all over the field and that's simply not the case. Treon isn't a good passing QB, but let's not act like the OL is great and the other teams aren't playing defense.This reminds me of how witnesses to an event / crime often report conflicting information. Because there's no way you and Law watched the same game the rest of us watched. Treon was pressured true, but there were plenty of times where he had time to make the play. The OL had one of it's better nights as most people including Mac are saying.
Thats not at all what coach Mac said or what the analysts are saying. The first thing that will be mentioned again this week is what trash the OL is.This reminds me of how witnesses to an event / crime often report conflicting information.

The red zone failures doomed us.You can see that Treon often had no time to throw or that no one was open but you can also see that there were plenty of times when it was all there for the taking. That game was two struggling offenses trying desperately to move the ball. One team however was occasionally able to hit a big pass and flip the field, despite a strong rush and mostly good coverage. The other was not.
It was frustrating as hell. Statistically we were outplaying them well into the 4th quarter. More yards, first downs, etc. Missed FGs, missed red zone chances, missed big play opportunities. Eventually you have to make a play if you're gonna win. We didn't need many, just a few and we couldn't get them. That safety was a perfect example.The red zone failures doomed us.
